The Blue Star Museums program gives military families the chance to learn about our country’s cultural heritage while on vacation…or learn about their new communities after making a military move. Over 2,000 local and national museums across America offer free admission to our nation’s service members and their families. Free admission runs from Memorial Day through Labor Day 2014. See a state-by-state list of participating museums.

Book your family’s stay through the Armed Forces Vacation Club and get access to accommodations at over 4,000 resorts, apartments, condominiums and homes in more than 100 countries. Choose from off-season "space available" rentals at the set price of just $349 USD per week…get discounted rates on high-demand locations during peak season…find short stay options and other money-saving vacation deals. Free club membership is open to all active and retired members of the Armed Forces, Department of Defense employees, and select civilian employees in military support roles.
